Family Health and Fitness Day

This Saturday, September 29th is the 16th annual Family Health and Fitness Day. Take advantage of a chance to spend time with the family, and demonstrate the importance of fitness to them by hosting a mini backyard Olympics. Every child has a strength, find specific events that each child will excel in and provide prizes or medals at the end.

Below are several event ideas...

  • Highest jumper or farthest jumper
  • Fastest sprinter
  • egg toss or water balloon toss
  • cartwheel contest
  • handstand contest
  • farthest baseball throw
  • Bowling with empty soda liter bottles
  • Swimming contest or treading water contest
Make it a neighborhood event and create team games, utilizing your local park field for baseball, kickball, softball or football!

Visit our Facebook for information on meals to fuel your little Olympians as well as upcoming events going on throughout the community this week!
